Recommendations 12 5.Strengthen the role of the not- for-profit organisations in the creation of different forms of decent employment 6.Prevent the “creaming” of profitable services over less profitable ones by service providers as well preventing “creaming” of easier-to-reach service users over more disadvantaged ones when providing services 7.Promote quality in the design & delivery of services (Voluntary European Quality Framework for Social Services) 8.Promote non-discrimination, participation and partnership between not for profit service providers and other providers in all matters concerning funding 9.Remove all barriers to not for profit service providers in accessing funding at local, regional, national and EU levels. Promote the strengthening of the partnership principle in the European Social Fund and other structural funds supporting social and health care services. 10.Establish an Intergroup on Social Services and Social Innovation
